THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. STEPHEN WARD, Appellant.

Judgment affirmed.

The defendant's claim of error with respect to the court's charge has not been preserved for appellate review (see, People v Hoke, 62 N.Y.2d 1022). In any event, the court properly instructed the jury, in accordance with Penal Law § 155.00 (3) and § 155.05 (1), that a person is guilty of larceny when he wrongfully takes another's property with the intent to permanently deprive him of that property or deprive him of it for so extended a period of time that a major portion of its economic value is lost (see, People v Blacknall, 63 N.Y.2d 912; People v Matthews, 61 A.D.2d 1017).

Additionally, the evidence adduced at trial was sufficient to establish all the elements of the crimes charged beyond a reasonable doubt (see, People v Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620). Mollen, P.J., Thompson, Rubin and Lawrence, JJ., concur.
